I've got a similar problem in my kitchen, I took a pastry roller and rolled the "bubble" to the edge and tried gluing it. But it hasn't helped. It seems worse when it it is colder and better when things are warm. If folks have any, I'm interested in other solutions.

I have a spot in my bathroom where the vinyl flooring is buckling slightly and becoming unglued.

I've tried to hammer it down and it will stay in place for a few days but then seems to come unglued again.

I guess the solution is to pull it up a little more and put some better glue under it.

Has anybody run into this situation and what did you do?

Thanks. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

In a home or apartment I would normally us a wet cloth and a steam iron to soften the old adhesive and get the vinyl back down however the subfloor in an RV is 1/8 to 1/4 inch thick luan over a 1 inch thick foam core and you could delaminate the luan from the foam with too much pounding or heat.

If it is just a real small spot in the vinyl and not the subfloor then slit the bubble and reglue and then put seam sealer (this is a most important part of the repair) over the slit to prevent water etc from getting into the repair. If it is close to a corner or a large area then peal it back to the corner/wall and reglue.

The materials to do this should be available at any good vinyl flooring dealer.

If you check your floor vents you will find that there is regular plywood - at least 5/8 inch thick as I recall - over the foam.

I had a similar problem in the dinette area with loose vinyl tiles. I tried to repair the area by placing something heavy on the tiles for a few days but the tiles came loose again. Had it repaired under warranty. The dealer said the vinyl tiles were not fitted and glued in correctly.

We had the same problem in front of the shower and had it fixed under warranty a few months back. It is now coming loose again and the DW is fed up and wants to install some other flooring (maybe wood?). Any ideas?

On a 03 39QD, the tile at the bottom of the one place wall kept coming loose. Do NOT depend on the original glue, use regular tile cement.
The wall was finally resecured and the trim reinstalled and that seemed to take care of the problem. See if the buckeling is near a moving or vibrating section. Good Miles
